RESOLUTIONS:
RESOLUTION on Governmental Interference with Free Speech and Academic Freedom at New
York Colleges and Universities
Be it resolved that the Academic Senate of Queensborough Community College strongly affirms
Academic Freedom for our faculty and our institution and condemns attempts to weaken such by
agents external to the institution.
A motion to table was made, seconded but failed 22-27-1
A motion to postpone was made, seconded but failed 23-39-2
A motion on the resolution was made, seconded and was adopted 60-2-1
RESOLUTION on QCC-DOE Early College High School Program (B-Tech)
Whereas, as per Article III, Section I of its bylaws, the Academic Senate, as the policy making body of
the College, has purview over:
The establishment and location of new units of the College (3)
The formulation of the policy relating to the admission and retention of students, subject to the
guidelines of the Board of Trustees, and curriculum, awarding of College credits, and granting of
degrees. (5) other areas affecting the welfare of the institution (7)
and
whereas, the proposed Department of Education of New York City and CUNY Queensborough
Community College Early College High School project touches upon all these areas;
therefore, be it resolved that :
(1) The Academic Senate provides its approval for the College to be initially involved in this project to
develop a program with the NYC Department of Education and,
(2) Representatives of the Academic Senate and/or relevant committees of the Academic Senate will
be included in the program development process;
(3) A final description of the participation of the College in the Early College High School project be
submitted to the Academic Senate for review and consideration;

administration, will be submitted for review by the members of the Committee on Curriculum of the
Academic Senate annually.
RATIONALE:
The Early College High School project portends a significant development and change in the nature
of the Queensborough Community College. While our college has maintained an array of
partnerships with institutions of secondary education (through College Now and other initiatives) and
the private sector (the partnership with Verizon, for example), Queensborough’s involvement in the
Early College Initiative (website at http://www.earlycolleges.org/) breaks new ground for our
institution, representing a simultaneous partnership with the CUNY Central Office, the Department of
Education, and a private sector corporation. Many faculty members have important questions about
the direction of this initiative, relative to curricular content, instructional delivery, and the future of

Academic Senate wishes to insure that these students receive an education consistent with
Queensborough’s educational mission and the talents of its dedicated faculty. For this reason, we

of curriculum development and program review from this ground-breaking program’s inception, and
throughout its operation.

B. The Committee on Curriculum (Attachment K of the February 11, 2014 Agenda)
The Committee on Curriculum has sent the following recommendations to the Academic Senate:
1. PROGRAM DELETIONS
DEPARTMENT OF ART AND DESIGN
Certificate in Photography
Rationale: The enrollment in the Photography Certificate program has been declining for the
past few years. Student FTEs have recently been in the single digits. Many students are
part‐time. Enrollment has slipped from 16 total students in fall 2007 to 8 in fall 2012. Of the 8
students enrolled in the program in 2012, only half were full-time. Significantly, 5 of the 8
students fall between the ages of 30 and 44, indicating a shifting demographic for the program’s
student base from a younger, more traditional first-degree student to an older student more
likely to already have earned a previous degree. In addition, the commercial photography world
is being transformed by rapidly evolving technology. This evolution includes the increasing
obsolescence of traditional analog photography in favor of newer digital and online
technologies, as well as a shrinking professional job market, a phenomenon directly related to
these technological changes and a concomitant, culture-wide lowering of standards for aesthetic
excellence. The program once served a student cohort seeking full-time employment in the field,
but more recently the emphasis of the program has switched to technical and aesthetic training
as opposed to job-specific skills. Finally, the continuing viability of the Certificate has been
undermined by recent mandates of the Jobs Linkage Law (NYS Education Law Section 6304),
which requires an advisory board of industry professionals and other active associations with
the presumed, but never-existent "Photography Industry", requirements that are today
unreasonable if not impossible to meet, and the small enrollment to justify. In light of these
realities the Department of Art & Design voted at its November meeting to eliminate the
Certificate in Photography. We would propose to allow students presently enrolled to complete
the Certificate, but that no new students be enrolled. All photography courses will continue to
be offered under the existing Art and Design concentration in the VAPA—A.S. degree program.
Those interested in taking specific courses to enhance their photography skills can still take
them on a non-matriculated basis.
•
A motion was made, seconded, and adopted 57-0-1 to approve the deletion of the
Certificate in Photography program in the Department of Art and Design (Attachment K of the
February 11, 2014 Agenda).

SUMMARY OF CHANGES AND RATIONALE
RATIONALE for 2 to 3 credit changes:
In fall of 2012 the department hired a consultant from NASAD (National Association of Schools of Art and
Design) to evaluate the possibility of gaining accreditation for the art and design program. The consultant
noted that “Foundation courses are three credits and meet for three hours and 50 minutes once a week.
Studio art courses are two credits—unusual—but in compliance with four hours of studio time per week.
Nonetheless, the institution is urged to move all studio classes to 3 credits… The three credits are fairly
standard for studio classes and would enable students to transfer these credits more readily. It would
necessitate a reconfiguration of curricula but would make Queensborough Community College students
more able to transfer. The consultant’s review of typical transfer institutions for QCC students (Queens
College, School of Visual Arts, Hunter College, Purchase College, SUNY) indicated that all of these
institutions (and most others) use three-credit standards for most art courses.”
When studio courses were first offered at QCC they were, as were all studio art courses within, and many
outside CUNY—both 4-year and 2-year institutions—4-hours/2 credits. Over the years, various units of
CUNY as well as private institutions have increased the credits to 3 while leaving the contact hours the
same.
At Queensborough we resisted this trend as long as possible, and so of necessity our students had to
take additional courses to fulfill their credit requirements. At the same time we made sure that the rigor of
our 2-credit/4 hours studio classes would be the pedagogical equal of, if not superior to, the course
content of normatively similar courses at other units that were granting 3 credits for the same material, so
our students would be prepared for transfer. Many years ago, however, we began to encounter the very
serious and concerning problem that QCC students who transferred to 4-year colleges within CUNY were
denied credit for the studio courses they took at QCC because at the transfer college the administration
and department only considered the credits and not the learning content or syllabi of the course, and
since the credits we awarded were less than what they awarded, they simplistically and unjustifiably
concluded that so too was the learning less rigorous, and made our students take those courses all over
again at considerable expense of time and personal weal. No amount of discussion could dissuade them
from employing that flawed equation. So, bowing to CUNY realpolitik, and to try and reduce some of the
needless expense and redundancy for our graduates, we upgraded several of our most commonly-taken
courses, AR-121 (2-Dimensional Design) AR-148 (Color Theory), etc. to 3 credits thereby allowing for a
smooth transfer of students’ credits at least for these classes. As new studio courses were introduced
over the years they were designed for transferability from the outset and allocated 3 credits for 4 studio
contact hours.
However, as noted by the NASAD consultant, this has now led to a checkerboard of studio courses at
QCC where some 4-hour studio classes are worth 3 credits and others only 2, making the transfer of
credits within and without CUNY, unpredictable, inconsistent, and most importantly all too often grossly
unfair to the student who has done the work, but receives no appropriate college transfer credit. We are
therefore proposing to change all remaining 2-credit/4 hour studio art classes to 3-credits/4 hours. The
course scope and workload of these courses will be increased where necessary to justify the additional
credit. This generally will include additional projects and a broadening of content. We have attached the
revised syllabi for each course.
To further enhance the drawing, painting, design and printmaking course offerings (AR-512 AR-541, AR511, AR-510, AR-263, AR-262, AR-261, AR-253, AR-252), the Department of Art and Design will acquire
an additional painting/drawing studio over the summer of 2014. At present all our studios are scheduled
during the week. The additional studio will allow for “Open Studio Hours” where the students can work for
significant blocks of time on their projects. These projects are often too large and cumbersome to
transport back and forth to school, so this additional opportunity and availability of work time outside of
class will be pedagogically invaluable and will figure into the adjusted syllabi and expectations of student
performance in the re-credited courses.

AR-483 was developed specifically to prepare students for transfer to four-year art programs that require
a portfolio review for admission. Often the transfer college itself requires a second portfolio review before
allowing their own students to continue into their Junior and Senior years. AR-483 is an Independent
Study course that allows students to work with a faculty member of their choice in their field of
concentration to develop a portfolio of work that will allow them to pass that second level review. Initially
it was thought that the scope of the class might be broader to include general discussions and projects
that looked at the different career needs of Queensborough students, but as we pursue accreditation and
the required transfer agreements with other colleges, it has become clear that a more narrowly focused
class would be or greater benefit to our students. Additionally, if the all the studio courses will now be 3
credits, the several art programs we offer will have to divest themselves of the credit differential;
restructuring AR-483 and reducing it by one credit helps to relieve that pressure.

A motion was made, seconded, and adopted 57-0-2 to approve the deletion of the
Certificate in Photography program in the Department of Art and Design (Attachment K of the
February 11, 2014 Agenda).
3. Program Revisions
DEPARTMENT OF ART AND DESIGN-AAS in Digital Art and Design (DAD)
Note: Detailed changes for each course have been omitted from this report because of their
length. They are available upon request from the Committee on Curriculum.
Rationale: One program in the Department of Art and Design will be directly affected by the changes
listed above: Digital Art and Design (DAD). The Art and Design concentration VAPA will not be affected
and will not have to be modified. Students will still be required to fulfill 20-26 credits in their major,
however at 3 credits for all the studio courses they will simply have to take fewer courses to fulfill that
credit requirement than they would have when those classes were 2 credits.
